Books may also be ordered from Joan Johnson (her address is given below). A THIRD BOOK IS IN THE WORKS! .... Our Genealogist, Joan Johnson, is already hard at work preparing the genealogy of the JOHN HOTCHKISS line. Joan writes, "I especially want to encourage you to send me your family data and biographical information to include in our records. Highlight any data you would not want published. Biographical data on your ancestors, from diaries, publications and other sources makes our family members "come alive" and makes genealogy much more interesting. "If you have not updated your data, I encourage you to do that now. Be sure to include event locations for birth, death, burial and marriage, including the country where known. Please include full names - not initials - and full names including surnames of spouses where known."
Joan Johnson,
Genealogist
